Hello all...

I need to get a driver for the Intel PRO100 PCI lan adapter and I was told
by Jordan Hubbard that it was in FreeBSD-STABLE.  I cannot download the
entire source for STABLE as the only Internet connectivity I have is
through AOL which  has been unreliable as of late and is always expensive.

What I need to know is if there is a way I can download just the files
neccessary to update my kernel to support this Intel card.  If anyone can
help me I would greatly appreciate it.  I can't afford new cards nor can I
afford to wait for the next release of FreeBSD to get it on CD-ROM.

Thank you all very much for your time!

Sincerely,

-Dave
